The Story: Syracuse guard Eric
Devendorf has violated the Student Code of Conduct after allegedly hitting a
female in
the face. The Syracuse University judicial hearing board has recommended that
Devendorf be suspended for the remainder of the academic year. He is expected
to appeal the decision. The appeals process could take anywhere from 15 to 20
days. "Any player can still play while the case is under appeal,"
Syracuse coach Jim Boeheim said Wednesday.

The Story: Jack McClinton was ejected in
Tuesday night's game for slapping Ohio State guard Anthony Crater in the
face. McClinton was reacting to Crater's swiping at him and Crater immediately
covered his face after contact from McClinton, but remained in the game. Coach
Frank Haith was angered Wednesday morning after reviewing the tape. "After
watching the tape I was disappointed and I felt that Jack reacted to being hit
in the face,'' Haith said.
